04/17/2020 This movie broke my heart into a million pieces. It is beautiful and sweet and tragic. The performances are genuine and subtly powerful. I have no words to describe the emotions I felt watching this; its only flaws are the somewhat meandering pace before a quick turn in the second half. See more 01/16/2020 Heartfelt and honest. Story about friendship, loss, love and oppression painted in beautiful twilights and lush green farms. Bulbul can sing is poignant yet non exploitative and sincere. See more Read all reviews
